Sant’Anna Institute Summer Courses

A full course load at the Sant’Anna Institute Summer program is split into two sessions, and requires a total of 3-7 U.S. credits for a single session and up to 12 credits for two sessions. You may choose to participate in either one or both sessions of the program.

  • Please review your courses with your academic or study abroad advisor to ensure they will transfer back to your home school and that you are following your home school’s policies.
  • We unfortunately can’t guarantee specific courses. If your participation in the program depends on a particular course, be sure to make a note on your online course form.
  • On your academic preferences form please indicate 8-10 courses, including alternates, that you are pre-approved for and can take while abroad. In the event of scheduling changes, time conflicts, prerequisites or cancellations, this ensures that you will be prepared to finalize your courses once overseas.
